Vacuum Tubes

Just thought I'd let the listees know that while visiting my local parts and equipment store today (which carries a large amount of discontinued and surplus items of all types), I noticed there was a whole aisle of electronic vacuum tubes there. Guess it's been there for quite a while, I just hadn't noticed it before. I looked at several of the tubes and saw that the addresses listed on the boxes contained no ZIP codes, so I figure that a good part if not all of these tubes are vintage items from back in the '50s or '60s. I have no idea what prices they have on these items as most of the stuff is unmarked, but I know from buying other items there, their prices are usually pretty reasonable. If anyone has any needs of vintage vacuum tubes, contact me off list and I be glad to check on them for you. I saw RCA, GE, and Sylvania there to mention a few and I believe most were for TVs and Radios, but who knows what else I may find there. I'm not an electronics person so I don't know what distinguishes one tube type from another. Let me know if I can be of help to anyone out there. Bill bmachacek at pcisys.net
